[Verse 1]

Mr. 1981
A hero so tall, he could block out the sun
His legs spread wide like wings, so watch him fly
(Flyyyyy)

He's a daddy to all, but a father to one
Strives to be great in the eyes of his son
But Monolith Man won't stop, 'cause he's a bad guy
Just watch him try...

Just waa-aaatch him try!

[Chorus 1]
It's time for Mr. 1981
To face off against foes of every size
There will be a great fight before we're done
But will he win? That's a surprise!

From the rings of a circus he arose
Boasting physical strength and also brains
How to be a great dad is what he knows
But the rest of his story still remains!

(NINETEEN EIGHTY ONE!
NINETEEN EIGHT ONE...)
[Verse 2]

This clash of titans determines the fate
Of the world as we know it as 19-eiggggggggghhhhht
-ty two approaches, now the year's going by!

Both dad-ing and fighting, there's a lot on his plate
(Plate, plate, plate, plate, plate, plate, plate!)
Then mom appears to help carry the weight
(Weight, weight, weight, weight, weight, weight, weight, weight!)
When they're together, nothing can go awry
Just watch 'em try...

Just waa-aaatch 'em try!

[Chorus 2]
Mr. and Mrs. 1981
They face off against foes of every size
There will be a great fight before we're done
But will they win? That's a surprise!

From the rings of a circus they arose
Boasting physical strength and also brains
Parenting skills are what they know
But the rest of our story still remains!
(NINETEEN EIGHTY ONE!
NINETEEN EIGHT OOOOOO-ONE...)
